If you’ve hung out on the bullpen rail at T-Mobile Park this season, you might have witnessed some of the shenanigans that go on among Seattle’s good-natured group of relievers. All bullpens are full of, to borrow a term, Weird Little Guys, but it’s remarkable how quickly the group in Seattle has gelled despite a significant amount of turnover and mainstays of last year’s ‘pen—Penn Murfee and Andrés Muñoz—currently on the IL. This group is led by four new faces to the ‘pen this year: lefties Gabe Speier and Tayler Saucedo, and righties Justin Topa and Trevor Gott; a group Scott Servais has nicknamed “the Fearsome Foursome,” although that’s far from the only nickname this crew has.
